1) Is at least as intelligent as I am
2) does not treat me with patronising contempt
3) does not pretend not to realise that real healing takes a very long time and if it does it is not the ''fault of the patient''
4) Does not reference other ''patients'' and compare their pain or make disparaging comments about them.... A T who had me did this (sorry about the rant. I have trauma from childhood and a negligent T in ''real life'' retraumatised me. Negligent T's, I believe, are rare. In most forests.
I would be pleased to find a T who fits 2 of the 4, lol. I keep hearing that 'it doesn't work unless you do the work and if you were doing the work you'd be done in the 8 weeks you have allotted'
